I retired 3 years ago following a career of 39 years in education. I worked for 25 years in Haringey as teacher, deputy head and two headships. I then moved to Tower Hamlets as a School Improvement officer. I worked with a wide range of schools and had a leadership and management brief.

In retirement I very much enjoy walking the dog, cooking, films and books. I feel I now have the time to give something back to a local school and look forward to getting to know Forty Hill School much better as a PCC Governor.
